D6 H7
He was named nineteenhundred 'TD'
EmCDEm
in the ship`s belly lies his cradle
DCG
had no birthday and no land of home
DEm
the ocean has no bounds
H7 D6 G
virginian sounds
DG
and he faced the world from inside
DC
the ball-room of splendid skies
DC
and on the grand piano
DG
his hands light as butterflies
DG
he played for the rich and for the poor
DC
thrilling the hearts of all
DC
the world could have been beneath his feet
H7
searching the call
Em
the voice of the sea
D6 H7
old chandelier tells a story
EmCDEm
old piano still echoes in here
DCG
old ship lies rusted in the port
DEm
and the best years fade away
H7 D6 G
the splendour has gone
DG
not what he saw could hold him back
DC
it was what he didn`t see
DC
there was no end in this town
DG
keys so eternally
DG
but this was god`s piano
DC
he heard on the gangway there
DC
he couldn`t leave forever
H7
the sea to somewhere
G
bow and stern
EmC
all the wishes between
DG
(wishes to yearn)
Em Hm
the world outside is a dream
D H7 Em
(a lone dream, lone dream)
CG
and when the whole world`s leaving
DEm
the music will always stay
CG
and if a story`s worth to tell
H7
the end will be far away
EmDCDEC
the final notes lie mute upon the sand
Hm
when land is a ship too big
Em D C Hm
a woman out of reach
Em
a journey too far
DG
a whiff too strong
F# H
he didn`t exist for anyone

and when the whole world`s leaving
DEm
the music will always stay
CG
and if a story`s worth to tell
H7
the end will be far away
EmDCDEC
the final notes lie mute upon the sand
EmDC
and in this lonesome end
Em H7 Em
final notes lie mute upon sand..
